New Delhi, May 29 (TIWN): Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief N Chandrababu Naidu on Tuesday brushed aside the party s rout in the elections and said that even a great leader like late party founder N T Rama Rao or NTR, as he is called had suffered defeat but did not lose heart.

Emphasising that the next five years will be crucial for the party, Naidu told party workers and leaders: We have to introspect what went wrong and should come back stronger than before. It is not going to be easy, with the YSRCP in power with full majority, but I hope we will make a strong comeback.
